Nuclear Pride in North Korea

Why does America have such a war of words with North Korea? Does the threats have to involve the ultimate in human destruction, nuclear weapons? Is it a call for attention with both sides just feeling a need to be noticed or heard? Peace and diplomacy used to be the quiet heroes. Not anymore. People need to hide behind their guns and the bigger the better. Intellectual reasoning has clearly taken the back seat to brash tactics.

Tensions have increased recently with a war of words between the leaders. Why? America knew that North Korea wanted more weapons for years. America spends most of the taxpayer funds on the military and their expensive weapons. We need to calm everyone down with reassurances that we all wish humanity to exist and that there is no intention to use these powerful weapons any time soon. Like any Mom would say to two bickering children, that’s enough now go to your room and do something else besides prepare a fight. Instead with Trump’s infinite wisdom as a world leader he says, “North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen.”

So, should we just say good bye to those we love now?  Do threats ever stop the hate? NO. So, in response North Korea has announced a detailed plan to launch missiles towards the United States Pacific Territory of Guam. Trump then said, “Maybe I wasn’t tough enough!” What could be tougher than fire and fury? Who the hell is North Korea anyway? The place is one of the most isolated places on earth. Their leader spends all their money on the military and expensive weapons. North Korea’s military is the 4^th largest on earth. In contrast the North Korean economy is estimated to be smaller than that of Birmingham, Alabama. People do not even have electricity at night. From space North Korea has no lights seen. It is run by a family dictatorship that only provides its own propaganda as news stories. The place holds 24 million people. Like in Venezuela, this dictatorship starved the people till they got total control over them. In the 1990’s between 600,000 and 2.5 million people died from hunger. There are large prisons where political prisoners are held along with their extended family for an infinite amount of time. Every night someone tries to escape. They strip the prisoners naked so that if they escape they will have nothing.

We think of Kim Jun as a madman but instead he is just worried about his own safety. There are 30,000 American troops stationed in South Korea ready to strike. Trump already doesn’t have a good   record in convincing people to do what he wants. Mexico said they will not pay for the wall Trump wants to build. His Republican government can’t approve of a health care bill He even thinks China is going to take sides with us. Does he even know that China shares an 800 mile border with North Korea? China likes the communist state of North Korea. China accounts for as much as 90% of North Korea’s total trade.  They do not want South and North to be a democracy. Does China want the United States at its border? Hell NO.

The United Nations have already tried hard sanctions on North Korea but that is no threat. North Korea has found easy ways around it. So if a company gets punished, North Korea just changes the name of the same company to something else and then they are back in business. China could increase their sanctions but they don’t want to. If North Korea collapses from shortages of supplies then millions of people from North Korea will flood China with refugees. China supports enough people. China also doesn’t want North Korea pointing their nuclear weapons at them either.

We should understand the fear Kim Young Fuck Nut is feeling. When the President of Iraq Saddam Hussein and the Libyan Dictator Muammar Gaddafi agreed to cut back on their nuclear weapons, they both lost their power and were eliminated from their dictatorship. Young Kim is not about to let that happen to him!
